happy February!

This month our practical life shelves will be stocked with Valentine themed works. To celebrate Valentine's day we will have our Valentine Craft night for families to make valentines! It is a PFM tradition to make "Friendship Fruit Salad" on Valentine's day, and this year will be no different. On Valentine's day please bring 1 piece of fruit and we will prepare a friendship fruit salad for lunch!

Our zoology focus this month will shift from penguins to horses. We will learn the different parts of a horse's body, the names of different facial markings and explore the relationship between horses and humans. They say life is better viewed through rose colored glasses, but I say that life is better when you're learning about roses! In addition to our horse study, we will also be learning about roses. We will learn the parts of a rose, different species of roses and even make rosebud necklaces.It is a short month, but it will be a fun month!
